Purpose of this pull request

MSSP parent orgs don't see the AI features / MCP Server access toggles on their own Feature Management page, but none of the AI docs explained where MSSP admins actually go instead — this caused real customer confusion in an EMEA support escalation (internal Slack thread, confirmed by Neha Dhar).

This PR:

  • Cross-links the Mobot, SOC Analyst Agent, AI/ML overview, and MCP server docs to the existing MSSP "Manage features" flow (Administration > Organizations > Manage Account > child org > Manage Features).
  • Names the exact permissions involved: Manage Organizations (MSSP path) vs. Manage Organization Settings (standalone-org path) — fixing an existing "Manage Org Settings" typo in the Mobot doc to match the formal permission name in role-capabilities.md.
  • Notes that Support account users cannot manage child-org AI settings from an MSSP parent org, even with the Administrator role.
  • Adds a note to manage-orgs-for-mssps.md confirming AI features / MCP Server access are among the manageable features there.

Out of scope: role-capabilities.md's "Manage Organization Settings" row description doesn't currently mention Feature Management access. Left that alone pending separate confirmation with Neha, rather than assume it's accurate.

MSSP parent orgs don't see the AI features/MCP Server access toggles
on their own Feature Management page, but the docs never explained
where MSSP admins actually go instead, causing customer confusion in
an EMEA support escalation. Cross-links the AI docs (Mobot, SOC
Analyst Agent, AI/ML overview, MCP server) to the existing MSSP
"Manage features" flow, names the exact permissions involved (Manage
Organizations vs. Manage Organization Settings), and notes that
Support account users can't manage child-org AI settings from an
MSSP parent org.

As an MSSP administrator, you can manage feature availability for your child organizations directly from the Organizations UI. This allows you to opt in or opt out individual child organizations from specific Sumo Logic features without needing to contact Sumo Logic support.

This includes the **AI features** toggle (Mobot, Parse Assist, and the SOC Analyst Agent) and the **MCP Server access** toggle — see [AI and Machine Learning with Sumo Logic](/docs/get-started/ai-machine-learning/#can-i-opt-out-of-ai-features). Unlike standalone orgs, MSSP parent orgs don't see these toggles on their own **Feature Management** page; manage them per child org here instead.

@ndhar-sumo I don't see that on my end. Can you confirm where I can find it?

@ndhar-sumo thanks for the quick turnaround

Resolve conflict in mcp-server.md: keep the now-uncommented Micro
